章 6: Chapter 6

With the fall of the Roemian Empire — conqueror of the western kingdoms whose rule once reached the Southern Continent — came the age of lords.

The empire was split into the Seven Kingdoms: Wedon, Balto, Dristan, Osiriya, Sykan, Arex, and Livadon. Kings sought the loyalty of their vassals to protect their territories, and vassal lords strove to bolster their armies with ever greater numbers of knights and sorcerers.

Duke Ezion Croyso, Maxi's father, was no exception. The first Duke of Croyso had been one of the lords of Wedon who had successfully seized the rich lands that had once belonged to Roem's imperial family. Over the generations, the Dukes of Croyso joined dozens of wars to secure fertile lands and tens of thousands of serfs.
